Title: Any Capitol Transcriptions Q series? (not Hi-Q)
Post by: project.audion on April 14, 2023, 10:28:38 PM

Capitol Hi-Q series LPS and reels are wonderful and incredibly evocative of their time . Hi-Q disks are what turned me onto production music, decades ago when the post-production facility where I worked had an extensive set.

But before those, there were evidently "Capitol Transcription" 78s in Q and X series..."Lo-Q" as someone once retconned them.

I would LOVE to hear some of these early ones, particular Q-1 and 2. These may hold the theme to the radio show "Yours Truly Johnny Dollar" (which was also used in Dick Tracy TV) ...and the story goes that these were ACTUALLY originally released on MUTEL, a label I've only heard of and never seen nor heard.

ANyone chased any of these down?

Welcome aboard, project.audion. I hope you don't mind, but I edited your username so it wasn't your email address ;)

We have a few Capitol specialists here, so hopefully someone will have answers for you.
